A14
Herz
Outdoor Sensor Fault / Weather Compensation Error
Boiler shows A14, burner output limited, may not reach set temperature
Advertisements
Possible Causes
Failed Herz outdoor temperature sensor, broken sensor cable, incorrect sensor placement, shorted sensor wiring
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: This is a low-voltage circuit; still isolate power before working on wiring.
- Check sensor location: Ensure the Herz outdoor sensor is mounted on a north or northwest wall, away from direct sun or heat sources.
- Inspect cable: Look for damage where the cable enters the building and at the boiler connection terminals.
- Bypass test (for skilled users): Temporarily disconnect the sensor and fit a resistor matching a typical outdoor temperature to confirm the boiler responds correctly.
- Replace sensor: If readings are clearly wrong or A14 persists, install a new Herz outdoor sensor and reconfigure weather compensation if needed.
